A First Grade Blog

Reading

Hello friends! Today I am linking up with Amanda over at Teaching Maddeness to talk about a book that I think is a “Must Read”… aren’t they all “must read”?! :) I just can’t get enough books! I hope my kiddos feel the same way. I love introducing them to books that make them love reading. I stumbled upon this quote the other day and I just absolutely love it and agree with it!

This week is jam-packed and short! We were off Monday and I am DRA testing on Wednesday, so that leaves only 3 teaching days. Friday is also an assembly day and the last day of the 6 weeks, so I’ll be scrambling to get grades in. I don’t really have time to do the fancy visual plans with all the pictures and links, so I’m just going to give you an overview! :)

We’ll be using a few different resources to learn all about President’s Day.

Here is an ABC order freebie that I made.

This is a great little unit with timelines, making words, and comparing the 2 presidents.

Here is a hat we will be making about our George Washington facts.

I hope you have a fantastic week! Thanks for stopping by to read this short and sweet peek at my week.

I’m linking up to share my plans for this week with you! I hope you had a GREAT Thanksgiving break with your families. I know I could use a few more days after all that food, but I’m so excited to get busy with all these fun holiday activities!

So, I haven’t blogged in a few weeks because I really didn’t have anything to blog about… I have a serious case of writer’s blogger’s block. Does anyone else ever feel that way? I haven’t felt inspired to create any new products or to write a post that other people will read. I’ve just been truckin along in my room, staying busy with my class. (Have I mentioned how much I love my class this year? Because I do.)

Basically this post is a photo dump of some things we’ve been learning about the past 2 weeks. Enjoy!
